ACCESSING THE MASTERCONTROL DATABASE
Only Windows users with Administrator permissions can operate MasterControl
initially; all other users see an error when they try to start the application. How-
ever, Windows users without Administrator permissions can be added manually
to the list of valid MasterControl users. To grant a non-Administrator Windows
user access to the MasterControl database, complete the following steps while
logged on to Windows with Administrator permissions:
1.
From the C:\Program Files\Integral\MasterControl directory, run
ManageMCDB.EXE.
2.
Click Next twice to view the Administrator tab (see Figure 7).
3.
Under Authorized Accounts, double-click the Windows users that should
have permission to run MasterControl. Users listed with green checks are
authorized to run MasterContol, whereas users listed with a red “X” are
not authorized. Close Manage MCDB when finished.
If you demote the default “DVX1” account to a non-administrator status in Win-
dows, be sure to authorize it using Manage MCDB.
